Hello, my name is Doug Young and I am a 3rd year chemistry graduate student in the Doxsee Lab. I was born and raised in California and received my bachelors in chemistry and biology from UC Davis. I came to Oregon to help implement and develop Green Chemistry education and research.

My research focuses on the use of organocatalysis as a way of forming polycyclic compounds with multiple stereocenters. Also, we develop undergraduate lab experiments that reinforce the principles of Green Chemistry.

Outside of the lab you will find me cooking and eating good food, working in my garden, backpacking, traveling, and simply sitting around enjoying some terere with friends.
